Lions Let Josh Reynolds Walk — Now What?
Detroit let a core piece of their NFC Championship roster walk in Josh Reynolds, and the backup plan is Tim Patrick. The Heavyweights aren’t sold that’s enough.

We all want to say the Detroit Lions have the NFC North locked up, but let’s be honest — the Green Bay Packers are lurking. If that defense ever figures it out, we’re looking at a 13-win team.
Detroit released Nate Sudfeld, officially handing the backup QB reins to Hendon Hooker. It’s a tough call on a beloved locker room guy, but it tells you everything about where this team is headed.
James Houston’s value isn’t about volume — it’s about precision. With Marcus Davenport and Josh Paschal healthy, Detroit can deploy Houston as a lethal third-down specialist and still get elite production.
James Houston has 8 sacks in 9 career games and somehow people are saying he doesn’t produce. That’s not a debate — that’s just wrong.
Detroit’s first-round corner has all the tools to become a true CB1, but the Lions’ loaded secondary means he can just be good in Year 1. And that might be exactly how this defense takes the next step.
The Lions have built such ridiculous depth that a former starting receiver like DPJ could get cut before a special teams ace. That’s the kind of roster problem every team wishes they had.
The Lions host the Rams on Sunday Night Football to open the season, which means Matthew Stafford walks back into Ford Field as the enemy. Should Detroit honor him with a tribute? One longtime Detroit figure has a simple answer: love the guy, boo him anyway.
The Detroit Lions are in a different class than the rest of the NFC North, but the Packers’ explosive offense and the Bears’ Caleb Williams experiment are the two teams with the best shot at closing the gap — even if neither is quite there yet.
Stop buying the national hype. The Dallas Cowboys are a mess with their three best players unsigned long-term, while the Detroit Lions have Goff, Amon-Ra, and Penei Sewell locked up and ready to dominate.
